Forgotten Legend of the Bloodied Flower

"Thank you for telling me all these." Gu Xia Mo slowly turned his wheelchair around. He didn't have the plan to spend the entire night outside when it was snowing like this. It was cold and even after living on the mountain for a few years, he still had to make sure to keep himself warm to stay healthy.

"It's nothing compared to what you told me."

"How is it possible to compare the two completely different matters." Gu Xia Mo shook his head. "But I'm glad to know that even when we're all in this world, everyone is doing well on their own."

"Not for long," Long Qian Xing said in a low voice. His battles against Fang Sheng Lin could end up with him recruiting the other party into his own army.

But could the same apply to Song Yun Xiang and Luo Qing Wei?

Would they met each other, it was estimated that one of them would have to die one way or another.

This is war.

Gu Xia Mo paused for a moment and chuckled. "Life is temporary, so don't think too much about it. If it's truly their time, then they will depart from this world earlier than us."

He himself knew that he didn't have long to live.

The ultimate price to change the lives of a lot of people around him was his own life. Whether it was worth it or not, he didn't know.

But he didn't regret this decision.

No matter what happened in the future, it was his decision to live in this way and experienced these things. Whether it was good or bad, he accepted it all.

"I know."

Long Qian Xing looked into the distant area for a moment before turning around and entered the cave again.

He stopped before the bedding, looking at the young woman who was already sleeping soundly.

When Nan Hua was sleeping, she looked very calm and peaceful. The blanket covered her body but not her face, allowing him to see her clearly. She looked very cute, making him want to pinch her cheek yet at the same time, he didn't want to bother her sleep.

A strand of her hair covered her cheek. Long Qian Xing sat on the bed and reached out to pull the hair away.

"Sleep tight, Hua'er," Long Qian Xing muttered in a low voice as he laid down beside Nan Hua.

The faint sound of breathing entered his ear, constantly reminding him that he was not alone on this bed. Even if this was not the first time he slept in the same room with others, but previously was in the barracks where everyone were rough men who were tired after the excessive practice.

They would not bother each other.

This was the first time he truly laid down with such a soft figure lying peacefully beside him.

Long Qian Xing sighed deeply.

He had the feeling that instead of cold shower, he might need to take a bath on the snow instead. Having to stay with Nan Hua in this situation was clearly a sweet torture.

On one side, he was happy to be able to sleep beside Nan Hua.

On the other side, he wouldn't be able to take care of his needs when there was such a sweet temptation lying beside him.

*sigh*

Long Qian Xing closed his eyes, trying his best to sleep.

…

When it was dawn, Nan Hua opened her eyes and looked at Long Qian Xing. When he came closer last night, she was actually awake for a moment. But hearing the familiar footsteps and fragrance, Nan Hua went back to sleep.

Her sleep has always been very light, but she could feel that she was trusting Long Qian Xing more and more. It was as if she knew that he would not harm her.

Raising her head, she could see that Long Qian Xing was still sleeping beside her. He had handsome appearance and looked rather cute when he was sleeping like this and not as tense as he used to be when he was awake.

Her eyes moved to his eyebrows. It looked relaxed and when he was awake and thinking about something, he would look much tenser.

Nan Hua blinked her eyes and slowly moved from the bed. She looked at the area around them. The main reason why they were placed near the entrance was to make it easy for them to get out early in the morning and also because no one else would be staying here. After all, this place was colder than inside the cave.

"Brother Long, I know you're awake," Nan Hua said in a low voice.

Long Qian Xing opened his eyes and looked at Nan Hua bitterly. He couldn't really sleep last night, not when there was such a sweet temptation lying right beside him. If it was not because the temperature was truly cold and there was cold wind from time to time, it was estimated that he wouldn't be able to truly control himself.

Not long ago, he woke up and then sensed movements from Nan Hua, so he stilled his movements.

Unfortunately, his acting couldn't go unnoticed by Nan Hua.

"Let's go down."

"Brother Long didn't need to say goodbye to Gu Xia Mo?"

"I have already said it last night. And there's no need to bother them when they're busy with their moving plan." Long Qian Xing smiled.

He didn't have any plan to interact with these people under Gu Xia Mo. Besides, it was estimated that they would never meet with each other again for their entire life.

It would be better for him to leave quietly.

"Ok."

After simple cleaning and eating dried meat for breakfast, the two of them alighted down the mountain.

Gu Xia Mo was awake and watched the two of them disappeared into the distance and sighed deeply. He slowly controlled his wheelchair to turn around and nodded at the people behind him.

In a few days, they would leave.
